Sure it is. People on our team need to take time to onboard the new hire. That's good and expected. The new hire will work slower and that's ok; they will need extra help, time to learn the codebases, etc. After a couple of months, a particular new hire did not work out. Time had to be taken to document reasons, meet with HR, meeting to talk about expectations, etc. In the end, the new hire is gone and so is the time the team spent helping, and the slowdowns on real deliverables, and the hit to team morale. It sucks when someone is let go. It was a net negative for our team and thus the whole org. Depending on a combination of level (leadership position?) and toxicity, negative impact on the team or company culture can occur. Bad hires can have a real cost.
